Harbour View Crematorium, Funeral Home & Woodland Burial Ground

Harbour View Crematorium, Funeral Home & Woodland Burial Ground Harbour View offers a holistic way to arrange and celebrate a funeral at competitive cost in Dorset.

Outlook Bereavement Support is a service offered by Tapper Funeral Service, the only remaining long-established family owned and run funeral business in Poole, Dorset, UK. Estabished in 1904, Tapper Funeral Service has offices in Bournemouth, Broadstone, Christchurch, Highcliffe, Milford on Sea, New Milton, Poole and Ringwood

As you would expect from a business with over 100 years of service and experience, we have a range of in-house and partnered services that includes anything and everything to do with the arranging and managing of a funeral, as well as a new service, Bereavement Care. While bereavement care offers no miracle cure, there are ways to help move forward and in itself, understanding your own bereavement helps. We offer:

- advice
- practical assistance
- forums via local get-togethers
- web based resources
- a social environment for like minded people that can be tapped into at anytime now or in the future. We also operate 'Harbour View' in Poole which is no ordinary burial ground or funeral facility. It occupies a position that enjoys a host of wildlife and nature along with dramatic views of the lagoon areas of Poole Harbour, the Purbeck Hills and Corfe Castle. We have installed the very latest equipment at all of our offices, and our interviewing lounges provide an atmosphere of comfort and tranquillity. The staff represent the very best in their individual fields. We strive to offer a service which is personal, helpful, efficient and unobtrusive.

The Tapper family has been supporting families across Dorset since 1904; a legacy built on trust, compassion, and quiet dedication.

What began as a local family-run funeral service has grown into something deeply rooted in the community, yet ever evolving to meet the needs of today.

Harbour View is a natural extension of that journey, combining respect for tradition with a forward-thinking approach to funeral care. Set in the heart of the Dorset countryside, Harbour View represents not just a place of rest, but a thoughtful reimagining of what remembrance can look like: environmentally conscious, personal, and centred on people.

🧡 Halloween Bingo Night at Harbour View 🧡

On 31st October, Harbour View hosted a special Halloween Bingo Night, organised and hosted by Richard, Sharna and their dedicated team. The evening brought together members of the community for a warm and welcoming bereavement support event.

It was a chance to connect, share stories, and enjoy a light-hearted activity in a supportive environment. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the night meaningful.

Your presence and spirit truly made a difference.

We look forward to continuing these moments of connection and support in the future.

Plan ahead with clarity, care and confidence.

If you’re thinking about the future, a pre-paid funeral plan that includes direct cremation can offer real peace of mind. It allows you to put your wishes in place in advance whilst removing uncertainty for your family and ensuring everything is taken care of, exactly as you’d like.

Your loved ones are then free to plan any extra gathering or celebration they feel is right, without the pressure of decision-making at an emotional time.

Our team is here to guide you through your options, with no pressure, just open conversation and compassionate support.

Home Farm is more than part of the land, it's the heart of Harbour View.

From eggs and herbs used in our kitchen to flowers grown for tributes, the farm supports sustainability at every level. Even our power is generated here through solar energy.
